D. Dell – May 10, 2013:

I ordered one set of these dampers and they worked so well, I ordered 2 more sets of 10 each/set. They are easy to install with just one screw. I do recommend you drill a pilot hole with a drill bit smaller than the screw.

Now that they are installed, you can’t slam the door even if you wanted to. Unless you really forced it. I put 9 of these on kitchen doors that contain glass inserts. I was always worried the door would close too fast and the glass would shatter. Well, no more worries with these SoftClose devices.

Since I just got them, I can’t attest to how long they will last or how durable they are. Time will tell. I mention this because of other reviews about oil leaking then failing. (Sold by other sellers). As far as I’m concerned, I don’t care if 1 or 2 fail over time. They are well worth having for peace of mind about shattered glass. Not to mention there is no more noise from slamming cabinet wood doors.

Give them a try, you’ll be glad you did. If nothing else, order just a few and use them for several month to see if you like them.

This product has saved me so much hassle, my 3 year son always slams his fingers in doors and makes a ton of noise! so I did a little research and found these Soft Close adapters to help out, and by golly are they amazing! They stop the door before it has the chance to pinch his skin or slam his finger. You can slam it as hard as you want and Now I don’t have to spend hours hearing him cry or aid his wounds plus, no more loud bangs in the kitchen!. Thank you so much!

Ordered a pack of these off the company website to try as an alternative to plain simple bumpers. I found them to be high quality with prompt shipping, and the action on the bumpers appears to be high quality. Recommended!

Worth every penny. I shopped around and these were the best deal for my money. Quick and easy install (only took around 20 minutes to install 18 of them). Very easy to adjust. So far they have held up extremely well. No complaints at all – we love them!

I searched and searched for a retrofit soft close cabinet door solution and finally found these on Amazon. My 14 year old grandson watched me install 2 of them, then took it on to himself to finish installing the other 8 left in the package of 10, and did a superb job! I now do not have any banging of those 10 doors, so I ordered 30 more to finish the job. They just came in, so one of the jobs this weekend is to install 30 more. The installation in our face frame cabinets is simple, one screw that is easily accessible. The adults in the family love these metal, sturdy devices!

I installed these in my cabinets because we have a new born and I didn’t want an accidental slamming of the doors to wake her up. Very easy to install and totally worth it.

A. Brandel – August 8, 2013:

We recently decided to update our kitchen (the flippers left it half done), and one of the features we wanted was the soft closing doors. However, due to the style of hinges we had, we were unable to find a hinge that had this feature built in. I ordered a set of these to test (as they were much cheaper than those found at my local home improvement stores), and was very satisfied.

Easy to install and small enough to not interfere with any items on the shelves.

We also added these to our linen closet doors, so our one cat is extremely upset at how well they work (she opens/closes the door to try and get attention…now, it doesn’t bang when she does it).

so far so good. even on our larger heavier doors the soft close product does a good job. after inspecting the closers and taking them apart they look to be well made.

These dampers do the job very well. I like that they are adjustable to accommodate your application and your desired style. I went on a kick and am dampening everything that I can get my hands on in the house

the pack that I got had some missing screws but I had a few small ones laying around that did that job.

Keep in mind these should go close to the hinge. I had to install one closer to the handle due to physical limitations and it doesn’t work as well – but they tell you not to in the instructions.

The best part of these Soft Close adapters is they are ACTUALLY made of metal.

D. Gleave – February 5, 2014:

When we first got our kitchen cabinets we didn’t get the soft close feature on all of them but we did on the drawers. Now I really regret that we didn’t.
I am so glad I found these Soft close Adapters to finish off the cabinets that didn’t have them, they were real easy to install took about 1 minute if that, on each door using a drill— just to let you guy’s out there know to buy these installed on a cabinet each one was $10.00 or a little more, to buy them at my local hardware store they were $6.99 each I got them here on Amazon for $ 2.99 each you
can’t beat that unless you get the cheaper quality ones…. So far they work very well they really finish off the cabinets nicely…you could
even install them on any cabinet door if you have a habit of slamming.

This is a great product that really prevents cabinet door slams. It mounts with only one screw. I drilled a pilot hole in our oak kitchen cabinets. The adjustable knob on the end makes it easy to change the amount of cushioning.

We just refinished our master bath and wanted to have softclose doors. I looked at Home Depot and other sites and all I could find were cheap plastic ones, priced higher than these! These door dampers are just as described, even better quality then I expected. They installed very easily, I had ten doors done in 15 minutes including predrilling. Would highly recommend.

I bought these so that I wouldn’t accidentally wake my wife while she was napping or dealing with her occasional migraines. It took about 45 minutes to installed 12 of the adapter. Like a previous reviewer mentioned, I’d definitely recommend drilling a pilot hole before installing. Overall, I’m very happy with the product. For me, it was a very practical and useful upgrade for a small cost.

I purchased these for some brand new cabinets and they work great! The adjuster works well so you can make the cabinets close at the same speed and for differnt hing applications.

Just what I expected.

Solid structure and good material.
I will recommend this product to anyone!

Kat Shell – April 14, 2014:

I recently bought some plastic soft-close dampers from that big Swedish home store and they were total junk. So, I decided to give these a try. They were easy to install, the metal housing is solid and they close the cabinets very smoothly. I highly recommend taking the extra step of drilling a pilot hole when installing. I started trying to drive the screws in without doing so and found that the damper was twisting and not remaining square in the corner. This was my error and not that of the damper. These are great, and I plan to buy enough to install in my whole house.
